    Default International woodturning congress in Avignon

    Here is some samples of what we have seen in Avignon France.
    It's only a sample as 12 international artists showed us how to realise art pieces.

    Absolutely brilliant

    Everytime I see work like that my jaw drops in awe and I wonder if I'll ever make the grade.
    Oh well a little more practice, maybe

    It must be the after effect of the good French wines but I attributed by mistakes the two first photos to Graem Priddle while they have been made by my friend REMY DELAPLACE: Please excuse me Remy

    Smile French Wines????

    Claude

    I think I see the problem.

    It's the French wines.

    You should try drinking only Aussie wines and see if your memory inproves.

    Cheers

    Tim, when I will have the opportunity to drink aussie wines, where it is produced, my joy will be such that I won't mind to loose my memory, and I'm sure it'll give me a brand new inspiration for my work. I hope it'll happen soon
